EFFECTS OF STRESS 1
Effects of Stress on Sleep Patterns of
Domesticated Animals
Daisy D. Ashworth
Texas Tech University
The words “Running head:” has been
removed from the first page according to
the latest APA manual. Refer to your
instructor’s preferences.
Full Title, Author, and Institutional
Affiliation are centered on the Title Page.
No date is needed unless your instructor
specifies for it to be included.
EFFECTS OF STRESS 2
Effects of Stress on Sleep Patterns of
Domesticated Animals
In the wild, animals have instincts to help them
survive a wide variety of life-threatening situations.
Animals will migrate hundreds or thousands of miles
to find food and shelter as seasons and temperatures
change (Garcia, 2012). They are equipped with tools for
defense and attack; Rodman (1999) shows some of these
are instinctual, while others are taught by parents to
their young to ensure survival.
However, as humans have bred the wildness out of
domesticated animals, it is imperative to study
Indent paragraphs
(Tip: Use the Tab key
not the space bar!)
Double spacing, no extra
lines between paragraphs.
1” margins, excluding header. Several fonts are acceptable. Refer to your instructor’s preferences.
The title is repeated before the body of
the paper. If there is an abstract or
author’s note, it will come between the
title page and main paper.
If your instructor still wants the words “Running head:”
on the title page, here is how to make the first page with
a different header (see APA’s 6th Edition for examples):
Microsoft Word Software: Select the Insert
tab. Click the Header dropdown menu and
choose your header. After doing so, Word will
bring up the Header Design Tab. Check the
Different First Page option.
Word Online (TTU Student Version): Select the
Insert tab. Click Header & Footer. While in the
Header, click on Options dropdown menu to far
right of screen. Select Different First Page.
Google Docs: Select Insert dropdown
menu. Click Header & page number.
Click Header. Click Different first page
check box.

Citing Quotes: ALWAYS use page numbers when directly quoting a source. The page number is optional if you
are paraphrasing.
With page numbers: Put page numbers directly after end quote marks even if it is not the end of the
sentence:
Rhetoric comes before speech because “rhetoric, as energy, has to exist in the
speaker before speech can take place” (Kennedy, 1992, p. 4).
Kennedy (1992) states the “receiver’s interpretation of a communication is prior to
the speaker’s intent” (p. 7), in that if the recipient does not act when the message
is received, the message is rendered meaningless.
For online sources with no page numbers, use paragraph numbers. COUNT paragraphs MANUALLY if
they are not numbered (APA Manual, 7th Ed., p. 273).
Koren (2019) says most fast radio bursts “are one-off events, and identifying
their source right away is a significant achievement” (para. 13).
If a source has no page numbers or paragraph numbers, defer to your instructor’s guidelines.
Otherwise, cite as if it were a general reference and not a direct quote.
If you are citing a secondary source (information your primary source has taken from
another source), put the original author in the text and write “as cited in” your citation.
Barth said the difference could easily be found by looking through key texts (as
cited in Frank & Hemingway, 2008).
For more information on quotations, see pages 269-278 and 258 in the APA Manual, 7th edition.

APA: References
What to include in a citation?
In general, the more information you can include the better. You want your readers to be able to find
your sources if they want to read them for themselves.
All sources used in a paper must be included in the References. Any source NOT used in a paper should
be excluded from the References list.
If this handout does not contain an example of your reference type, more options can be found at
www.apastyle.org.
General order of information, including punctuation:
Author. (Year). Title of article. Title of Periodical, volume number(issue number), page numbers. doi/URL
Chapter titles, lecture titles, episode titles, etc., are not italicized. Titles of books, journals, magazine,
websites, etc., are italicized.
For Chapter titles and Book titles, only the FIRST WORD and PROPER NAMES are capitalized. Journal
Titles capitalize all IMPORTANT words (such as nouns, verbs, and words more than 4 letters long).
There is NO SPACE between the volume and issue numbers for journals. Volume numbers are
italicized, issue number are not. [e.g. 11(4)]
There is NO punctuation at the end of the doi or URL, if one is included, otherwise period after page
number.
Authors are listed alphabetically by last name and first initial(s) only, not full first names
(e.g. Clay, R.).
Use & symbol rather than the word “and” with multiple authors.
As of the 7th edition, the words “Retrieved from” are no longer required, unless citing a webpage that
is occasionally updated making the date retrieved important. Defer to your instructor’s preferences.
Tips for making a hanging indent.
Microsoft Word Software: Select the sources you are ready to format. On your Home tab, click the arrow
to the right of the word Paragraph (it is pointing down and to the right). This will open a new
menu. Look for the Indentation section and the option Special. Click the Special dropdown and
select Hanging.
Word Online (TTU Student Version): Click on downward-pointing triangle to the right of the icon that
had horizontal lines and a backwards ‘P’ (Paragraph icon). Click on Special Indent. Click on
Hanging Indent.
Google Docs: On the top ruler there is a rectangle that shows the words First Line Indent and the
downward-pointing triangle that shows the words Left Indent. Leave the First Line Indent
rectangle at the 0.00 mark on the ruler. Slide the triangle a half inch to the right.
